Yoinks. Legendary lineman? What % of teams will get the DP+2, SG guy, I wonder?!

[Loynster]

Good question! We shall see.

Apparently my last rulespack was a Death-roller wet dream and that was the no brainer roster.

We saw one and it didn't win.

Quick question, I am registered for the event and just viewed the rules.

Assuming I take a Tier 1 team I have 1.2 million to spend .

It mentions I get 4 Primarys and 2 mutations. Are the primarys on top of the 1.2 million spend ? Are the mutations on top of the 1.2 million spend ? Can a player be given a Primary AND a mutation ?

Thanks

Hiya,

The 4 primary’s and 2 mutations are separate to the 1.2m.

So you get 1.2m to spend on your team then 4 primary skills and 2 mutation skills separately.

In all cases you may only take one skill per player so no stacking one primary with one mutation.

When you say "tiers as per the 2020 rulebook" do you mean as per the November errata? Or are we all taking Underworld?

[chaoshugs]

I'm happy to be reserve if still available

[Loynster]

When you say "tiers as per the 2020 rulebook" do you mean as per the November errata? Or are we all taking Underworld?

Yes, the Errata officially alters the rulebook.

[Loynster]

The May errata/FAQ WILL be used at Borak Bowl III.

The errata concerning the chainsaw will be interpreted to include the line ‘if the player hit was the wielder of the chainsaw’.

[Loynster]

All, for clarity, the 0-1 mercenary player you’re allowed at Borak Bowl III can be one of your minimum 11 rostered players.

Star players can only be taken after you have 11 rostered players (one of which could be the mercenary).

[KendrallSharne]

Quick question - Are Grak & Crumbleberry counting as one star player?

[malawicichlid]

Planning to complete my roster in next day or two, final question, can you include a Giant after you have your 11 man roster ?

thanks

Quick question - Are Grak & Crumbleberry counting as one star player?

Yes, as per the most recent errata.

No giants sadly! Just the inducements laid out in the rulespack.

It was 2/24 in the end! One came around the middle of the pack and one rock bottom. Generally the meta was claw (with lots of mutations in general allowed).

Despite the claw everywhere, the winner was a normal lizardmen team with no stars and a just legendary Lino with block as an extra block piece.
